THE MARKET. By looking over a map the reador will perooive ihat it enjoys the best narket in the Union, and has diroct communication with New York and Philadelphia twice a day, being only thirty-two milos from tho latter. I'rnduco in this market brings double the price that it does in locations distant from the oities. In this locution it can bo put into market tho same morning it is 'gathered, and for what the farmer Bells he gets the highest price; whilst grooeries and othor articles he purchases he gets at the lowest prioe. In the Wost, what be sells brings him a pittnnco, but for what he bays he pays two prioes. In locating here the 1 "ttler'hos many other advantages. He is within a w hours by railroad, ofall tho great oities of New It ugland and the Middle Stains. He is near his old friends and assoeia ions. He has school for his children, dif loo sorvice, and all the advantages of olvtluation, and he is near a largo city. THE CLIMATE Is delightful: the winters being salubrious and open, whilst the summers are no warmer than in the North. Tho location is upon the lino of latitude with Northern Virginia. Persons wanting a ohange of climato for health, 'would be much benefitted in Vineland. The mild- nets of the climate and its bracing in!!uonoo,makes it excellent for all pulmonary affeotions, dyspepsia, cr general debility, v lsitors will notice a nuior-jco in a fow davs. Chills and fevers ro unknown. CONVENIENCES AT nAN'D. Building material is plenty. Fish and oysters are plentiful and cheep. Visitors m"t expect however to soe a newplnee. WHY THE PROPERTY HAS NOT BEEN SET-TIED BEFORE. This question the reader naturally asks. It is leonaso it has been hold in large tracts by families notdisposed to sell, and being witho tt railroad facilities thoy had fow induooments, Tho railroad has just been opened through the property this sea-eon for the first time. Visitors are shown over the land in n curing, free of expense, an 'afifordod time and opportunity for thorough ipvestigation. Those who come with a view to sottle, should bringmoney to secure thoir puroiiases.as locations are not ueiu upon rciusai. Thosafo3t thing in hard time?, where people have been thrown out of employment or" business, and possess some little means or small incomes, Is to start themselves a homo. They can buy a pieoe of land at a small price, and earn mora than wages in improving it; and when it is done it is aeertain independence and no bn. A few acres in fruit treos will insure a comfortable living. Tho land is put -down to hard time pricos, and all improvements an be made at a cheaper rate than most any othor time. The whole tract with six milos front on the rail road, is being laid out with fine and spacious nren-nes with a town in the centre five aero lots in the town sell at from $150 to $200; two and-a-half acre lots at from $30 to $120, and town lots 60 feet front by ISO feotdcop; at $100 payablo ono half cash and tho balance witnln a year. It is only uon farms of twonty acros, or more, that fouryoars' time is given. TO MANUFACTURERS, the town affb-ds afine opening for tho shoo manufacturing business, and -other articles, being near Philadelphia, and the surrounding country has a large population, which affords a good market. This settlement in tho course of a several years, will be ono of the most beautiful places in the country, and most agreonblo tor a residence. It is intended to make it a Vine and Fruit growing country, as this culture is the most piofitable and the best adapted to the market. Every advantage and convenience for sottleri will be introduced which will insure the prosperity of the place The hard times throughout the country will be an advantage to the settlement, as it compols people to resort to agriculture for a living. Large number of people are purchasing, and peo pie who desire the best location should visit the place at once. Improved land is also for sale.

All persons ean road this report with Interest. Advantages of Fat ming near Home Vine-land Remarks upon Marl Soil, its great Fertility- The Cause of Fertility Amount of Crops Produced Practical Evidence. Uncertainly one of the most extensive fertile -tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farmin that we know of this side of the western prairies. We found soma of the oldest farms apparently lust as profitably productive a when first cleared of forest fifty-er jk hundred years ago. The geologist would soon discover the eanse of this continued fortuity. The whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the loll we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in the form of Indurated ealoareonf marl, showing many distinct forms of anoient shells, of the tertiary formation: and this marly substance Is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by inch plants as the farmer doeiree to cultivate. Marl in all its forms, has seen used to fertilise .crops in England, from the time it wa ooenplei by the Romans) and In Franco and Germany a marl bed Is counted on as a valuable bed of mannra.that Tan be dug and carted and spread over the field. How much mar valuable then it mast be, when found already mixed through the soil where new partloles will be turned np and exposed, and transoms ,d to the owners use every time he stirs tie aUlh. Bevlnf tbep iUjJ pur m sd of the eauie,thy will not be exeiled with wondor at seeing Indub itable oridonoo of fertility in a soil which in other situations, bavLig the same general characteristics or at leant appoarances, is ontirely unremunerativo except as unproductiveness lspromotea by arlilt-cial fertilisation. A few words about the quality and valuo of this land for cultivation, of which we have strong proof. Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Frank lin township, Gloucester oounty; who purchased some eight miles north of Millvillo, about three vearsago, for the purposo of establishing a steam mill to work up tho tiin . or Into lumbar, to send off by the new railroad, as woll as llrowood and coal, fur wbieh he bu dt a branch track a mile and a half long, lionlso furnishou sixteen miles of the road with ties, and has no doubt mado tho mill profitable, though his main objoct was to open a farm, having become convinced that the soil wns valua ble for cultivation. In this he has not boon dtsan- polntod, ao some of his crops provo. For instnneo, last year, mo soouuu time oi cropping, juo busnels of putatoos os one acre, worth 60 conts a bushel in the field. This year sevon acres itnout any manure produood 356 bushels of outs. In ono field the first orop was potatoes planted anions the roots and yielded 75 bushels. The potatoes wore dug, and wheat sowd, and yiolded 16 bushels; and the stubble turned and sown to buckwheat, which yield od 33J bushels; and then the ground was sown to clover and timothy, which gave as a flnt orop 2 tons por nore. The furt'.liiors applied to these crops; wero first, ashes from clearings; second 225 pounds super-phosphato of lime; third tOO pounds Peruvian guano; then 50 bushels of slaked lime has been spread npon the clovorsinco it was mowed, and turned in for wheat. Mr- Wilson's growing crops, and the wheat stubble of tho present soason, all indicate his land as being productive as any part of the State, At Mary Barrow's, an old style Jersey woman farmer, sovcral milos south of Mr. Wilson's, we wero so particularly struck with the fino appoar-ance of a Sold of earn, that we stopped to inquire of a hired man how it was produood. We found that the lane had been the year but one before in wheat, sown with olover, and this cut one season, ana last spri ng piowoa once witu 'one poor old nag' and planted wilh corn. i es, Lut you manured high, wo suppose? we said interrogatively, and got this reply- Waal, you soe, we couldn't a done that, bocause we hadn't but forty one-horso loads altogether, for 28 acres, and wo wanted the most on it for the truck.'' The truok consisted of boets.carrots, cabbnm. cu lumbers, melons, Ac, and a very produotive patch of Lima Boons, grown for markotinjr. So we wore satisfied that tho soil was not infortilo, even unaided by clover, which had fed tho oorn, because the truck patch bod not boon clnvored,and bad been in cultivation long enough to obliterate nil signs of the forest' Our next visit was to the farm of Andrew Sharp five miles north of Millville, from half to a mile east of tho railroad, and just about in tho centre of Vineland. Mr. Sharp commenced work here in December, 1853, upon 270 acros. In loss than three years he has fot 231 acros olearod and in crops this season, oil well inclosed and divided into several fields, with cedar rail or polo fence; has built a two story dwelling, about 36 by 40 feet, and a smaller house for farm laborers, and a stablo or granary and some othor outbuildings. Considerable part of tho land wns cleared for the plow at $'J per acre, and on some of it tho first crop L .-1 1 . ,! I :n. ... , . ' was u jiiKwuuiLi, iiuii-u wim jo ousticis in powuer per acre, i nis crop may no put in J uly 4tn to Zutb and yields 20 to 30 bushols per acre, harvested in Novembor; when the land being sowed with 150 lbs of Peruvian guano and seeded with ryo, yielded 12 to 15 bushols per. aero and $10 worth of straw. The ryo stubble turned, after knocking off a largo growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with guano and soodod to whoat, gave 15 to 16 bushels. 1 ho crop which he was threshing whilo we woro there promisos more, of a very plump grain, and the straw is vorv hoavy. Wo wont over the stubblo, and found the clover and timothy from seed sowed last spring, on the wneat smnout narrowing, looking as well ns we ever saw it upon any old cultivated farm, and with a little work done iu the winter to oloar off some roots and rotton stumps, nnd sotting stakes to mark pormanent ones, he will be able to cut the crop the noxt year with a mowing machine, and wo will guaranteo two tons per aero, if he will give the over pius u u overruns mo estimate. Part of the land was planted with potatoos for a first crop, which yielded 120 bushels per ncro. It was then limed with 50 buaho por noro, and sood-ed with wheat and olovor, yiWding an average of over la Diisnois per acre, ana mo clover now looks ooaumui. Other portions have boon planted with corn as a first crop, which yielded 30 bushols of vellow flint corn, and the second crop -,orly bushels, ana the tmra crop, ironica i&u os ot guano, wo are suro no one would estiinoto bol uw 10 bushels per acre, Tho reador will recollect that thn writor is now spoaking of lhnd omircly now, and which enn scarcely bo considered in good arable condition. CD. In other cases the corn crop of last year was fol lowed with oats this season, not yet thrnslied, but win nvorage probably 4U to ou ousncis. Hwcet potatoes, beans, melonsand in faot nil garden vegetables, as woll as young poach and other fruit trees planted this year show very plainly that this long icgleoted tract of land should remain so no longor, and thero is now a strong probability that it will not; for under the auspices of Mr. Landis, it will be divided into small lots, with roads located to accommodate all tho surveyor is now busy at this work.. and all purchasers will be required to build neat comfortable houses, and either fence their lots in uniformity, or agree to livo without fence, which would bo preferable, by which means a good population will bo scoured, who will establish churches, schools, stores-mills, meshanio shops and homes homes of American farmers, sunounded by gardens, orchards, fields and comforts ef civil iied life. If any one, from any derangement of business, is desirous of changing bis pursuits of lifo, or who is from any cause desirous to find a now location and cheap home in the country, aud who may read and believe what we have truly stated, ho will do well to go and see for himself whaLmay bo seen within a two houis' rldo out of Philadelphia.

The ocean has bright sparkling game, In caves have wealth untold, Beyond the worth of diadems Or all earth's burnished gold; And down in ita deep stillness lies Amid the coral throng, Earth's proudest, richest argosies Which alio has mourned ao long. In Eastern lands the flowora bloom More fresh and fair than ouis, And night brings scarce a cloud of gloom O'er Tier Elyaian bowers; There light winged icphyrs ever stray In suit enamored gales. When evening shuts the light of day From out her classic vales. But dearer to this heart of mine Than Ocean's brightest gems, Than lifo within that Eastern clime, Than stars or diadems; Is woman s pure and holy love Amid her early years, Increasing in its strength above The work of t-iil and tears. Sophie the words are spoke at last. The trial hour is o'er, The chain is broke that bound mo fust And I'll return no more. How blest am I to know that yet I bear thy love with me. That gentle heart will nut forget My name and memory. The years are passing swiftly by; They'll writo upon the brow; They'll dim the lustre of the eye That beams so brightly now, They'll bid tbe lustie step depart And all of beauty flee; But till they still the beating heart I will remember thee.

War Incidents. From the army correspondence of our exchanges we gMlicr tho following inci dents: A ONION WOMAN IN PNAC:LA. "Ou the night of our arrival in Pensa-cola," writ'-s a private soldier, "two or ilireo of us were inlti g a stroll, and during our walk wo were met by a fine look ing lady, who immediately grasped one of our party by the hand nnd seemed so overjoyed that for a moment the could say nothing. At last she told us how happy she was at our arrival, and that she hid long prayed for this day and Ink ngja small silk American flig fiom bosom, she presented it to ono of us, saying. For nine months I have carried this flag bidden on my person, praying an opportunity like this would present it elf, iha'. I might present it to a Union soldier It graced ray wedding table, nnd I love it and every soldier who fights for it. Tho husband of this patriotic ludy was obliged to fly for his life on account of his Union principles." COOL FIOH1INQ AT nANOVSR. At the battle of Hanover Court House, Virginia, two sergeants met in the woods, each drew bis knife, nnd the two bodies were found together, each with a knife buried in it to the hilt. Some men had a cool way of disposing of prisoners. O je, an officer of the Massachusetts 9.b, will known in Boit.n as a profebsor of muscular Christianity, better known here as "the child of the regiin nt," while rushing through ihe wo da at the head of his com" pany, came upon a rebjl. Seizing the "gray buck" by the collar, he threw him over his slioul ler, with "Pick him up somebody. A little Yankee, marching dowo by the side of a fence which tkiried the woods, o me upon a strapping secesb, wl o attempted to seize and pull him over the rails, but the little ono hav too much science. A blow with the butt of a musket leveled sacesh to ihe ground and made him a prisun er. There are many marvel U3 esc ipes. AN IRISU SERGEANT. Reluming from tho field of Hanover af. ter the em my bad retr -ated, a captain was m)t by one of hs sergeants with a tquad of North Carolinan8. Saluting, he reported, "Five ribils, sirr all pris.nt and ao counted for." A PAYMASTER WITHIN FiVE MILES OF RICH MONO. In the midst o all this cannonading, and at the very farthest advanced post of our army, a civil operation was ptoceeding, which, could the rebels had seen it, would have made them admiro tho coolue.-s of some of our acis. At a table under a tree, and withiu a few feet feet of a battle, sat Major Charles S. Jones ot Washington City, who wits engaged in paying the troops Two hundred thousand dollars in money and vouch ,r- for many thousands more were lying Bround him, and ono after the . ther he called up the ofhVrs nnd men, and paid ihem their salaries for doing service la the Union cause. A rebel shell would buist; thejmajor would ra se his eyes anl Ear, "Poor th)t that, captain; bow much do I owe you?" and then continue his calculations. ' OIVISO THE, COUNTERSIGN. Too good a story to lemain untold is going the rounds o the camp. One, night, after the countersign was on, a qunrier-master, endeavoring to enter the lines ol of hia regiment, waslchallenged by an Irish sent nei. "Halt! Who comes there?" "A friend, without the countersign." "Well, what d'ye want?" "I am'the quartermaster, and I wnt to get into my regiment; and not knowr g the couniresign, I suppose I shall have to go back and get it." "Is that all? An' bo j ibbers, what's to prevint my giving the countersign to ye?" "Nothing, I suppose," Tho sentinel gave him the countersign, and the qu trtermaster entered the li es with a beaming face, to tell his story to a circle of laughing comrades. . C. A Question fou tub "Conservative" Newspapers You ato forever telling us, gentleman of tho selfslyled "conservative" pross, that the Government must put down this rebellion actordinj to the Comtiiilion, Now we assert that no measure; no policy necessary to put down the rtbcltion can be contrary to tbe Constituti on.

THE MARKET. By looking over a map the reador will perooive ihat it enjoys the best narket in the Union, and has diroct communication with New York and Philadelphia twice a day, being only thirty-two milos from tho latter. I'rnduco in this market brings double the price that it does in locations distant from the oities. In this locution it can bo put into market tho same morning it is 'gathered, and for what the farmer Bells he gets the highest price; whilst grooeries and othor articles he purchases he gets at the lowest prioe. In the Wost, what be sells brings him a pittnnco, but for what he bays he pays two prioes. In locating here the 1 "ttler'hos many other advantages.

He has school for his children, dif loo sorvice, and all the advantages of olvtluation, and he is near a largo city.

This question the reader naturally asks. It is leonaso it has been hold in large tracts by families notdisposed to sell, and being witho tt railroad facilities thoy had fow induooments, Tho railroad has just been opened through the property this sea-eon for the first time. Visitors are shown over the land in n curing, free of expense, an 'afifordod time and opportunity for thorough ipvestigation. Those who come with a view to sottle, should bringmoney to secure thoir puroiiases.as locations are not ueiu upon rciusai. Thosafo3t thing in hard time?, where people have been thrown out of employment or" business, and possess some little means or small incomes, Is to start themselves a homo. They can buy a pieoe of land at a small price, and earn mora than wages in improving it; and when it is done it is aeertain independence and no bn. A few acres in fruit treos will insure a comfortable living. Tho land is put -down to hard time pricos, and all improvements an be made at a cheaper rate than most any othor time. The whole tract with six milos front on the rail road, is being laid out with fine and spacious nren-nes with a town in the centre five aero lots in the town sell at from $150 to $200; two and-a-half acre lots at from $30 to $120, and town lots 60 feet front by ISO feotdcop; at $100 payablo ono half cash and tho balance witnln a year.

All persons ean road this report with Interest. Advantages of Fat ming near Home Vine-land Remarks upon Marl Soil, its great Fertility- The Cause of Fertility Amount of Crops Produced Practical Evidence. Uncertainly one of the most extensive fertile -tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farmin that we know of this side of the western prairies. We found soma of the oldest farms apparently lust as profitably productive a when first cleared of forest fifty-er jk hundred years ago. The geologist would soon discover the eanse of this continued fortuity. The whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the loll we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in the form of Indurated ealoareonf marl, showing many distinct forms of anoient shells, of the tertiary formation: and this marly substance Is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by inch plants as the farmer doeiree to cultivate. Marl in all its forms, has seen used to fertilise .crops in England, from the time it wa ooenplei by the Romans) and In Franco and Germany a marl bed Is counted on as a valuable bed of mannra.that Tan be dug and carted and spread over the field. How much mar valuable then it mast be, when found already mixed through the soil where new partloles will be turned np and exposed, and transoms ,d to the owners use every time he stirs tie aUlh. Bevlnf tbep iUjJ pur m sd of the eauie,thy will not be exeiled with wondor at seeing Indub itable oridonoo of fertility in a soil which in other situations, bavLig the same general characteristics or at leant appoarances, is ontirely unremunerativo except as unproductiveness lspromotea by arlilt-cial fertilisation. A few words about the quality and valuo of this land for cultivation, of which we have strong proof. Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Frank lin township, Gloucester oounty; who purchased some eight miles north of Millvillo, about three vearsago, for the purposo of establishing a steam mill to work up tho tiin . or Into lumbar, to send off by the new railroad, as woll as llrowood and coal, fur wbieh he bu dt a branch track a mile and a half long, lionlso furnishou sixteen miles of the road with ties, and has no doubt mado tho mill profitable, though his main objoct was to open a farm, having become convinced that the soil wns valua ble for cultivation. In this he has not boon dtsan- polntod, ao some of his crops provo. For instnneo, last year, mo soouuu time oi cropping, juo busnels of putatoos os one acre, worth 60 conts a bushel in the field. This year sevon acres itnout any manure produood 356 bushels of outs. In ono field the first orop was potatoes planted anions the roots and yielded 75 bushels. The potatoes wore dug, and wheat sowd, and yiolded 16 bushels; and the stubble turned and sown to buckwheat, which yield od 33J bushels; and then the ground was sown to clover and timothy, which gave as a flnt orop 2 tons por nore. The furt'.liiors applied to these crops; wero first, ashes from clearings; second 225 pounds super-phosphato of lime; third tOO pounds Peruvian guano; then 50 bushels of slaked lime has been spread npon the clovorsinco it was mowed, and turned in for wheat. Mr- Wilson's growing crops, and the wheat stubble of tho present soason, all indicate his land as being productive as any part of the State, At Mary Barrow's, an old style Jersey woman farmer, sovcral milos south of Mr. Wilson's, we wero so particularly struck with the fino appoar-ance of a Sold of earn, that we stopped to inquire of a hired man how it was produood. We found that the lane had been the year but one before in wheat, sown with olover, and this cut one season, ana last spri ng piowoa once witu 'one poor old nag' and planted wilh corn. i es, Lut you manured high, wo suppose? we said interrogatively, and got this reply- Waal, you soe, we couldn't a done that, bocause we hadn't but forty one-horso loads altogether, for 28 acres, and wo wanted the most on it for the truck.'' The truok consisted of boets.carrots, cabbnm. cu lumbers, melons, Ac, and a very produotive patch of Lima Boons, grown for markotinjr. So we wore satisfied that tho soil was not infortilo, even unaided by clover, which had fed tho oorn, because the truck patch bod not boon clnvored,and bad been in cultivation long enough to obliterate nil signs of the forest' Our next visit was to the farm of Andrew Sharp five miles north of Millville, from half to a mile east of tho railroad, and just about in tho centre of Vineland. Mr. Sharp commenced work here in December, 1853, upon 270 acros. In loss than three years he has fot 231 acros olearod and in crops this season, oil well inclosed and divided into several fields, with cedar rail or polo fence; has built a two story dwelling, about 36 by 40 feet, and a smaller house for farm laborers, and a stablo or granary and some othor outbuildings. Considerable part of tho land wns cleared for the plow at $'J per acre, and on some of it tho first crop L .-1 1 . ,! I :n. ... , . ' was u jiiKwuuiLi, iiuii-u wim jo ousticis in powuer per acre, i nis crop may no put in J uly 4tn to Zutb and yields 20 to 30 bushols per acre, harvested in Novembor; when the land being sowed with 150 lbs of Peruvian guano and seeded with ryo, yielded 12 to 15 bushols per. aero and $10 worth of straw. The ryo stubble turned, after knocking off a largo growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with guano and soodod to whoat, gave 15 to 16 bushels. 1 ho crop which he was threshing whilo we woro there promisos more, of a very plump grain, and the straw is vorv hoavy. Wo wont over the stubblo, and found the clover and timothy from seed sowed last spring, on the wneat smnout narrowing, looking as well ns we ever saw it upon any old cultivated farm, and with a little work done iu the winter to oloar off some roots and rotton stumps, nnd sotting stakes to mark pormanent ones, he will be able to cut the crop the noxt year with a mowing machine, and wo will guaranteo two tons per aero, if he will give the over pius u u overruns mo estimate. Part of the land was planted with potatoos for a first crop, which yielded 120 bushels per ncro. It was then limed with 50 buaho por noro, and sood-ed with wheat and olovor, yiWding an average of over la Diisnois per acre, ana mo clover now looks ooaumui. Other portions have boon planted with corn as a first crop, which yielded 30 bushols of vellow flint corn, and the second crop -,orly bushels, ana the tmra crop, ironica i&u os ot guano, wo are suro no one would estiinoto bol uw 10 bushels per acre, Tho reador will recollect that thn writor is now spoaking of lhnd omircly now, and which enn scarcely bo considered in good arable condition. CD. In other cases the corn crop of last year was fol lowed with oats this season, not yet thrnslied, but win nvorage probably 4U to ou ousncis. Hwcet potatoes, beans, melonsand in faot nil garden vegetables, as woll as young poach and other fruit trees planted this year show very plainly that this long icgleoted tract of land should remain so no longor, and thero is now a strong probability that it will not; for under the auspices of Mr. Landis, it will be divided into small lots, with roads located to accommodate all tho surveyor is now busy at this work.. and all purchasers will be required to build neat comfortable houses, and either fence their lots in uniformity, or agree to livo without fence, which would bo preferable, by which means a good population will bo scoured, who will establish churches, schools, stores-mills, meshanio shops and homes homes of American farmers, sunounded by gardens, orchards, fields and comforts ef civil iied life. If any one, from any derangement of business, is desirous of changing bis pursuits of lifo, or who is from any cause desirous to find a now location and cheap home in the country, aud who may read and believe what we have truly stated, ho will do well to go and see for himself whaLmay bo seen within a two houis' rldo out of Philadelphia.

At the battle of Hanover Court House, Virginia, two sergeants met in the woods, each drew bis knife, nnd the two bodies were found together, each with a knife buried in it to the hilt.
